Available Boundary Types

Exterior—Perimeter of field.

Passable Interior—Perimeter of area inside field not farmed, but can be crossed with machine and implement (for example, a waterway).

Impassable Interior—Perimeter of an area inside field not farmed, but cannot be crossed with machine and implement.

Change boundary type to headland after creating an exterior or interior boundary. If an exterior or interior boundary is created, boundary type list changes to allow for headland boundaries.

Exterior Headland—End rows along sides of field where end turns occur.

NOTE: If Headland Indicator (J) is checked, display counts down distance to next headland on guidance map.

Interior Headland—End rows or turn rows around an impassable interior boundary.

Headland Group—Combination of one or more related headland boundaries. Different operations use different headland groups. For example, a planter group with 36.6 m (120 ft) headlands, and a field cultivator group with 27.4 m (90 ft) headlands.

Headland boundaries can be driven or offset from exterior or interior boundary.

NOTE: Ensure headlands are large enough for machine and implement to turn around without using brakes.

Headlands boundaries are for use with iTEC™ Pro. Other GreenStar™ software view headlands on Guidance page, but do not use them.

John Deere Section Control functionality is based on exterior boundaries and headlands, and interior and impassable interior boundaries.

Headlands on Guidance View page are dashed pink lines to show where headlands exist on maps and perspective views. Only exterior boundaries and impassable interior boundaries have a headland boundary.
